Patient's question:
The child has become particularly restless, even when sleeping, they never stay still. When they are sitting still, they keep shaking their head and squinting their eyes, or they just can't stop fidgeting. The doctor said this is a sign of ADHD, and boys are more prone to it. It doesn't require medication, but if this continues, the child won't be okay.Doctor's answer:
First of all, let's talk about the parents. Parents should have a correct understanding of this disease and be mentally prepared for the long-term process. They need to understand that the child is not intentionally causing trouble and should explain the truth to the child, helping them gain some understanding of ADHD. At the same time, parents should remind the child that ADHD should not be used as an excuse for being willful or mischievous. Parents should also promptly inform the teacher about the condition and request the school's cooperation in treatment to help the child overcome difficulties.
